Riku3220 Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 When people think they can just solve every argument by mentioning Goku.Well, DBZ is babby's first anime so it's only natural to think he's the strongest when all they've seen is DBZ, Sailor Moon, and Pokemon.

Alg Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Yeah, but Goku is the strongest...If you can't perform your strongest attack between commercial breaks then you ain't the strongest.I dunno, I've seen plenty of JRPG attacks that went on for longer. Granted, one of them was the character doing all of the other strongest attacks one after another, but it still counts.

TTanT Posted December 16, 2012 Share Posted December 16, 2012 Let's be real here. The strongest characters are the ones who reached god status. But crossing series is almost always a bad idea in my opinions. Comparing a character whose Universe has villains who can blow up planets on a whim and a character whose foes are normal guys with knives isn't even close to reasonable. The only difference between Hitler and the man next door who comes home and beats his kids every day is circumstance. The intent is the same-- to harm others.[hide=Tifers say the darndest things]I told her there was a secret method to doing it - and there is - but my once nimble and agile fingers were unable to perform because I was under the influence.I would laugh, not hate. I'm a male. :(Since when was Ireland an island...? :wall:I actually have a hobby of licking public toilet seats.[/hide] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Estonian dude Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 I really [bleep]ing hate it when my parents side with my brothers on something with a principle, specially if it is just easier for them to do so...Case in point: this evening my brother wanted me to print 12 words of a poem in Russian, only because he was too lazy to write it in his notebook. I am like come on, it is like 10 [bleep]ing words, you can write it in your notebook, you can't be that lazy. Now my family is a bit weird, specially us kids and he started attacking me, for getting me to print it. Having lived with them younger brothers all my life, I know all sorts of painful maneuvres and moves and simply by phyisically picking him up and carrying out of my room got rid of him. For one minute. Then he comes and charges at me again, threatening to break my headphones or computer or whatever if I don't print it. I took it as a principle not to allow that printing, cause one cannot be that lazy and carried him out again. Aaaand he charges again. This time, took the iron that you use to move burning logs around in a fireplace and hit me once slightly in my balls. Still hurt me a lot. I twist it out of his hands, push him against my bed with my elbow on his head and take the iron again, carry him out again. Parents start to wake up now... And he charges again. And so twice. And by then, parents wake up and shout at me to print the [bleep]ing 10 words to get rid of that racket. [bleep] them. And I had to print it. And they wonder why me brothers' don't like to listen to them. So I've noticed this thread's regulars all follow similar trends. RPG is constantly dealing with psycho exes.Muggi reminds us of the joys of polygamy.Saq is totally oblivious to how much chicks dig him.I strike out every other week.Kalphite wages a war against the friend zone.Randox pretty much stays rational.Etc, etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTanT Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 ^I consider myself extremely easy going, but if a guy hit me in the nads with an iron poker I'm pretty sure I'd break his arm. Seriously, that's incredible restraint to not just start beating him with the poker. And your parents sound like they don't know how to parent.

Kirschen Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 It took me awhile to comprehend such a situation, especially given your brother physically attacked you with an iron poker over a poem. I am really impressed with your ability to restrain yourself in that situation since I tend to go berserk when physically defending myself. Sucks your brother ended up as the winner of the whole thing just because of total bullcrap and the only thing you get is physical pain and doing someone else's work.

Estonian dude Posted December 17, 2012 Share Posted December 17, 2012 Well, I have had to show self-constrait nearly all my life, since my parents mostly don't side with me... Our age difference is 3 years with this brother and I have simply been that much bigger and stronger physically. And as I said, he nearly missed and it wasn't too painful. And as a member of a 3-boy family I have grown used to this fighting and stuff. It has been happening nearly all my life and so I don't feel bothered about it.

Also, putting Goku in a different series that has less powerful characters would be boring as heck because "Goku beats the shit out of everything with minimal effort" isn't exactly an engaging plot.

Kirschen Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 I am still wondering why Goku is considered a role model despite having a multitude of bad characteristics by our standards in society. Hell, I never exactly liked him even when I was 11-12 at the time of watching the show. :unsure: Also, I just realized it just became December 18th. Lovely, I wasted my last few mintues as a 19-year-old making a post on a forum. Well spent, Lokie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randox Posted December 18, 2012 Share Posted December 18, 2012 I still stand by the position that if you turn the screen off, it just sounds like a bunch of angry dudes on the toilet yelling at each other and straining. By extension, I can't take any debate about the show seriously. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the beginning of DBZ he found out that he was an alien sent to conquer the Earth and he still fought to protect it. Which is surprising there is a lot in the show that can be interpreted as otherwise. The most evident is the fact of his race's prideful nature almost (and numerous occasions, actually has) gotten his friends killed, which I immediately noticed the first time I was watching the series. Then came a few years later when I noticed his other qualities that can be interpreted as unsavory. I'll just leave it at for now. I am willing to discuss my other thoughts on it via PM if you'd like, since I am know it's weird seriously discussing a character in a series that I considered rather silly.

So it isn't much difference. :3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
